I took training in Reiki, a healing modality. One way of using it is to treat a person remotely. My teacher said that, after going through the process of connecting with the client, send the message to their unconscious that they are free to accept or reject this energy. I think you can do that with any kind of working with someone, whether it's healing energy or just an attempt at sending unconditional love.
My idea of karma is different than most people's--I don't think we can very easily, if at all, inflict bad karma on ourselves in this 3D, but that's me. That doesn't mean that I take risks, though.
When I have a conversation with someone, they may talk about an experience or some ideas that prompts me to discuss my beliefs. First I try to abstain from saying anything and listen some more, but if I do say something, and even if they ask directly what do I know, I try to start by saying something like, "My current thinking goes like this..." Because I used to have different ideas and likely will have newer ones in the future, I give them a POV where they can hear but not have to accept. Maybe I do have an opinion on the topic but don't want to sound like I really have the inside track. That is obnoxious first of all, and the listener doesn't feel bombarded.
Often when I write something though, as in these forums, I tend to be more direct if I really think I have something figured out. I may be wrong about this, but I think when people read something they can spot the bullsh*t and think, "What a crock!"
To sum up, if even Ra believe they are "an humble messenger," then so should I.
